Florida Mom Gives Birth To 13.5-Pound Baby

What a perfectly pudgy baby!

When a new baby is welcomed into the world, one of the first things that people ask the proud parents is, “How much did he weigh?”

Usually the answer is between 5 to 10 pounds. (The average weight for a full-term baby is about 7.5 pounds.)

However, one Florida couple was shocked when their baby girl came out of the womb weighing a whopping 13.5 pounds! Yep, that’s one big, beautiful girl.

The parents had no idea that their daughter was going to be so large, and they say that the staff performing the C-section couldn’t believe their eyes. The proud daddy says, “I remember the doctor saying, ‘I don’t think this baby is going to end. Are there two of them?'”

The baby girl, named Carleigh, is so large that she is already wearing 9-month-old clothes and size 3 diapers. (For reference, my son is over a year old and he is wearing size 3 diapers!)

Although the parents were over the moon for their healthy, gorgeously chubby girl, they had a problem: None of the clothes and diapers they bought in preparation were going to fit Carleigh. (I hope they saved their receipts!)
